Structure

Directory & Files

Plugin files are stored in a sub-directory of the /plugins directory. The sub-directory represents what type the plugin belongs to. This allows for plugins of the same name but for different types. For example, one could have a plugin named example for both the /system and /search types.

Specific plugin files are contained within a directory of the same name as the plugin. While a plugin may contain any number of files and sub-directories, it must contain at least two files: the entry point (PHP file of the same name as the plugin) and a XML manifest.

Note: plugins will always be within a type sub-directory and will never be found in the top-level /plugins directory.
